About time, but it, like the House budget have no way of making it into law. Interesting part of the story, "The budget plan was passed by a 50-49 vote in the Democratic-controlled chamber. Four Democratic senators facing tough re-election campaigns in 2014 joined all the Senate Republicans in opposing the measure...".

Real conviction on the part of those four! Perhaps they forgot why they are in the Congress!

IMO the only thing these days that any Senator or Representative THINKS about is getting re-elected. It seemingly occupies 200% of their time and thoughts between elections. Actual "Governing" doesn't seem to happen much.
